Last Night's Television.

We watched two episodes of the fabulous Mortimer and Whitehouse's Gone Fishing.  Wish I had a friend like those two.  So incredibly intelligent and yet so very funny and incredibly philosophical on life.  I am really enjoying their book too!

Then we turned to Really and watched Antiques Road Trip.  This programme always caters for our inner Womble and it's always surprising what the experts choose to take to auction.  I always see things behind them that I like.  But that's  why I am not a antique dealer.  I can only buy what I like.

We switched over and watched a programme about the comic genius Les Dawson.  I love his dark and bittersweet and sardonic humour.  If you ever met someone from the Manchester or Liverpool area, you will know what I mean.

Even my Prog Rock hero Rick Wakeman appeared on the show.  Showing how not to play the piano.  I saw him play properly with Yes at the Night Of The Prog Festival in Loreley in Germany 2017.

A great nights telly viewing.

I found this video of Rick playing , nursery rhymes, famous composers and Les too.  Enjoy.

  1. That Rick Wakeman clip was fabulous Dave. Thank you. I didn'tsee the Les Dawson programme last night but I remember him once saying that when the PC brigade stopped him making mother-in-law jokes it was the mother-in-laws who missed them most.

  2. Hi Rachel. I would love to see Rick play live again.

    I think the likes of Les Dawson and Benny Hill were comic geniuses and you would have to be very sensitive to find them offensive. It's just silly daft humour to make you laugh and forget your troubles for a while.

    The video is super. Thanks Rachel.

  3. My Christmas viewing wasn't too bad but today's viewing is terrible. The only cure was to switch off. Roll on New Year, see if that's any better.

  4. Hi Valerie. I often watch television programmes from years ago on You Tube. Classic British sitcoms and gardening programmes like Geoffrey Smith's Vegetable Garden are my favourites. I always find something on television too. Quest and Really are two of my favourite channels and Channel 5 too. We watched one of the Steptoe films the other night. A comedy gem. Thanks for telling us about Christmas television viewing 5houghts Valerie. I really liked your latest story on your blog.

  5. You put Mancunians and Liverpudlians in the same basket but in my experience the former are a bunch of miserable buggers while all of the latter are natural comedians. I have never met a scouser who wasn't funny though I must admit that I have never met Steven Gerard!

  6. Scousers are the funniest people in the world YP. Mancunians aren't far behind. Les Dawson being probably the best of them. A very good pianist and writer too. Yorkshire is home to some special ones too. Billy Pearce and The Grumbleweeds amongst my favourites. Thanks.

  9. FINALLY FREE FROM HERPES VIRUSI thought my life had nothing to offer anymore because life became meaningless to me because I had herpes virus, the symptoms became very severe and bold and made my family run from and abandoned me so they won't get infected. I gave up everything, my hope, dreams,vision and job because the doctor told me there's no cure. I consumed so many drugs but they never cured me but hid the symptoms inside me making it worse. I was doing some research online someday when I came across testimonies of some people of how DR ADIGBA cured them from herpes, I never believed at first and thought it was a joke but later decided to contact him on the details provided and when I messaged him we talked and he sent me his herbal medicine and told me to go for a test after two weeks. Within 7 days of medication the symptoms disappeared and when I went for a test Lo and behold I was NEGATIVE by the Doctor Who tested me earlier. Thank you DR ADIGBA because I forever owe you my life and I'll keep on telling the world about you. If you are going through same situation worry no more and contact DR ADIGBA via dradigba@gmail. com or WhatsApp him via +2348077875210. he is good too to cure all type of disease and virus. 1 HIV cure 2 cancer 3 diabetes 4 hepatitis 5 herpes. You can contact if you are having any problem...

After two weeks of taking the herbal Medication, I went to my doctor for a checkup and my results showed Negative and my doctor told me that there is no trace of herpes in my body and the virus is completely gone from my body. Everybody at the clinic rejoices with me and they all ask for Dr. Kham contact.

  18. I was cured of HIV with the use of natural herbs. My name is Alandre and I'm from Texas. I love herbs so much. Most times, injection and drugs are just a waste of time. I was cured, I suffered from HIV for 13 years but with the help of Dr. Mark herbal medicine, I was cured within a few weeks of drinking the herbs he sent to me through courier delivery service. This same doctor also cured my Aunty from herpes, as soon as I heard she had herpes, I quickly refer her to Dr.Mark and she was cured too after drinking his herbs.I have referred a lot of people to Dr. Mark and they were all cured from their various illness. Have you taken herbs before?. You have spent so much money on drugs,injections,surgeries etc and yet you have no good result to show for it. Contact Dr. Mark now, he is a herbalist doctor, Dr. Mark has herbs that cures Hiv, Herpes, diabetics, asthma, hepatitis, STD, cancer, chronic, etc. Contact Dr Mark through his Email address on: blessedlovetemple@gmail.com Please share the good news to other people once you are cured.
